Chiefs WR - Who do you keep?

Andy seems high on Justyn Ross, so that signals something to me. Should he flash during preseason, I don't know if you can sneak him on the PS. The absence of a FB also tells me we're going with more 3 TE sets. Use 1 of them to be a H-back/safety valve. As I look at our top 4 TEs, you don't want Kelce in that role too often and I don't see either Gray or Fortson as viable candidates. That leaves Bell. The other option would be so say goodbye to Fortson, given his age and injury background and look at Blanton.

Fortson isn't going anywhere.

Also, Andy specifically said that Noah Gray will be handling some of the FB duties.

I'm not saying he is, I'd like to see him succeed. But 6'4" 226 lbs doesn't scream H-back, which was my point.
